专业概况

在这里学什么？

The B.S./M.S. program blends the undergraduate BS program with the MS program in Geology, leading to a joint award of B.S. and M.S. degrees upon completion of the M.S. thesis. The departmental graduate advisory committee administers the B.S./M.S. program in cooperation with the undergraduate advisor.

Prospective students should have advanced standing in the undergraduate program. Students will apply to the Earth Sciences graduate program in early spring of the junior year under consultation of the undergraduate advisor. Students should submit GRE scores and three letters of recommendation. Application requires a minimum GPA of 3.0 and will be considered by the departmental graduate committee.

Upon acceptance into the program, the student will prepare an M.S. research and course plan in consultation with a B.S./M.S. academic advisor, or will elect to complete a non-thesis (coursework) M.S. degree. Research reading and data collection begins in the summer prior to the senior year of undergraduate study, and will be completed in the following summer. The fifth year of study is devoted to graduate course work and completion of the M.S. thesis research, or M.S. non-thesis coursework.

Degree Requirements

The proposed curriculum includes the core undergraduate courses that are currently required for the B.S. in Geology, and all the graduate courses that are currently required for the M.S. in Geology. The total credit hours for this integrated degree program will be 138 credit hours for a thesis M.S., and 147 credit hours for a non-thesis M.S. For reference, the B.S. Geology degree requires 120 hours, and the M.S. Geology degree requires 30 hours for a thesis M.S., and 36 hours for a non-thesis M.S. The integrated program utilizes overlap credits, reducing the number of required credit hours by 12 hours for students pursuing a thesis M.S., and by 9 hours for students pursuing a non-thesis (coursework) M.S.

• For thesis M.S.: GEOL-G700 Geologic Problems (3 cr.), is taken in the Summer after the senior year, to develop a research project for the M.S. degree.
• For non-thesis M.S.: GEOL-G690 Advanced Geology Seminar (3 cr.), is taken with a faculty member in the Earth Sciences department to explore a research focus.
• Two 400-level or higher GEOL-G courses (6 cr.) satisfy both the B.S. Geology major course requirements, and 6 credits of the M.S. Geology graduate coursework requirements.
• For a thesis M.S., two 500-level or higher GEOL-G courses (6 cr.) satisfy both the B.S. Geology major concentration requirements, and M.S. Geology graduate coursework requirements.
• For a non-thesis M.S., one 500-level or higher GEOL-G course (3 cr.) satisfies both the B.S. Geology major concentration requirements, and M.S. Geology graduate coursework requirements.
